Creating sounds

fig.FILTER-TYPE-button

This button selects the type of filter that is applied to the waveform.

Press the button so the indicator for the desired filter is lit.

Pressing the button successively cycles you through the settings in this order: LPF –> HPF –> BPF –> BYPASS
–> LPF –> ... .

Filter types

fig.FilterTypes.e

• LPF (Low Pass Filter)

This cuts the frequency region above the cutoff frequency, making the sound more mellow.

This is the most commonly used filter.

• HPF (High Pass Filter)

This cuts the frequency region below the cutoff frequency, emphasizing the high-frequency region.

You can use this when you want to create percussion instrument sounds with a distinctive high range.

• BPF (Band Pass Filter)

This passes only the frequencies in the region of the cutoff frequency, and cuts the remaining frequency regions.

You can use this to create distinctive sounds.

If you select this filter type when you’ve selected “NOISE” as the OSC waveform, you will hear only a limited
region of the frequency components of the noise waveform; this lets you play notes that have a sense of pitch.

• BYPASS

Bypasses the filter. The unfiltered waveform of the oscillator will be output.
